B.A. in Psychology - Batch of 2028

Offered by Government College Rhenock, Rungdung

Rhenock College Basgharii.

Placements: Actually, its a government college, so basically you cannot expect placement from this college, you will be better off opting for higher studies and then further find a suitable job for yourself. Psychology department has no placement history so far, most people opt for higher studies.

Infrastructure: I do not stay in the hostel, I stay in PG, which is quite good, and I enjoy it a lot, not because of the people but because of the food. Otherwise, in the hostel, its kind of haunted and people do not prefer staying there because it is very dirty.

Faculty: Teachers are aged, which means they are quite experienced and they know what they are doing. They give you everything you need and tell you what to study for exams, too. Providing a full blueprint on how to prepare for exams, follow it, and you will definitely pass.

Other: In this course, we study here without paying anything, so its worth it, with our own separate department, our own teachers, and a very well maintained campus. Even though activities are very few, its worth it.

Basghari college rhenock.

Placements: In a government college, there is no such thing as placement in our college. You have to go do M.A. too, and in the arts, its really hard to get placement, it depends on you and you only. You cannot expect placement after passing with horrible grades. Keep the hard work and dont expect from college.

Infrastructure: As a government college, its reasonable only. The campus is huge with a separate sports ground, and a library is also inside the campus. Every department has its own building. If you are looking for a hill college, its perfect. I personally go there because its the closest to my house and my friends study there.

Faculty: Faculty is actually really good, all in time, and classes are quite good too. Exams are divided into various parts. You will have 25 mark exams 4 times and a final university exam. There are a lot of assignments & presentations given in between. The exams are quite tough. You need to study to get good grades.

Other: I chose this course because its what I have always wanted since my childhood. In this, there are no personal events or fests of this college, its only the other things like national holidays only.

Offered by Nar Bahadur Bhandari Degree College

3.2

3Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

Liked because of the infrastructure and teachers.

Placements: Placements for history are quite subjective, especially in Sikkim. However, we can enroll for a museum guide position with a fair package locally, and also go for archaeology, which offers up to 4 LPA in salary. The recruiting companies for history are not public, so it is quite hard to find them.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is quite good as seen in the hill region, and it is one of the best colleges in Sikkim. The library consists of a large collection of books, but there are fewer books beyond course books. The classrooms are quite traditional, I guess, but they have proper facilities required for students.

Faculty: Teachers are quite helpful and always ready for any assistance needed. The semester exams are, however, uneven; one exam ends and the other is on its way. It is affiliated under Sikkim University. The pass percentage is quite high due to the teaching.

Other: I chose this course because I like the subject.

Absolutely disappointed by the campus structure.

Placements: No roles or placement were offered. There were total 30 students and not even one of them got any placement. Not only placement but no students got any internship at any local or known place which was again very disgusting about this university.

Infrastructure: No proper campus was available. College life was supposed to be vibrant, with free working Wi-Fi labs and classrooms. But nothing was as such out so-called campus which was a building to be precise was not worth the vibe and truly speaking, I don't recommend.

Faculty: Faculty members were nice and exceptionally well talented. One good thing about the university was professors, they were the only good thing that happened to us the entire year. The passing percentage was 45%, about the industry-ready thing it truly depends.

Other: It was not so great at this university.

Offered by Himalayan Pharmacy Institute

4Placements3Infrastructure4Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Himalayan Pharmacy Institute, a college of pharmacy that provides best education and knowledge.

Placements: The placement percentage is 100% in our college, as there are many pharma industries in that region. Highest package is around 4 LPA, average is 3 to 3.5 LPA, and lowest is 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies include Cipla, Alembic, and Zuventus. Most of the students who applied got an internship and a job at these companies. Top roles offered are in Quality Control, Production, Packaging, and Accounting.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good and compact. College campus includes digital classes, advanced laboratories, and a library. Hostel facilities include a mess, a playground, and Wi-Fi. Quality of food is average, as usual, as in most of the hostels. College also supports sports activities, as there were two events conducted in a year for sports.

Faculty: Teachers are well qualified, experienced, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is very good. This course helps the students to understand the subject not only theoretically but also practically. Difficulty level of exams is moderate, and the pass percentage is 50%.

Other: This course provides me with a better understanding of how drugs work in our body and how the chemical structure of a drug can alter its therapeutic effect. I have a keen interest in medical science, and mainly in the science of drugs. That's why I've chosen this course. Place for improvement is to improve the syllabus regularly. Events include different cultural events and fests each year.

I am extremely satisfied with this university.

Placements: Sikkim University provided 100% placement. It provided good quality education. It had well-disciplined students in university. I think this university had proper value for money and time. It also gives job facility like banking, etc.

Infrastructure: There were big hostels for both girls and boys. For girls' safety, the girls' and boys' hostels were separated into two areas. This university had a watchman who noticed all the activities of students and informed the head of the university, and talked with their parents.

Faculty: It provided good quality education. Given course made students eligible. During exam time, it was very easy to coordinate with questions.

Other: It is a very safe university. I suggest that +12 students should join this university.
